Figure 2

(A–C) Hes3+ cell in the striatum of non-cancerous adult human brain tissue (blood vessels identified by RECA-1 expression), human hemangioblastoma (HBM) biopsy (HBM Hes3+ megakaryocytes shown), human glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) biopsy (Hes3 co-expressed with prominin). (D) Fetal cortical cells sorted for prominin express Sox2 and Hes3. (E) Enrichment for Sox2+ and Hes3+ cells by magnetic sorting using an anti-prominin antibody. (Size bar, 50 µm).
